I have another conviction, my wife will always be of more "value" than an unborn child-- not that I won't love the unborn, just I will always love my wife more.
I believe I have a scriptural basis for this conviction. Maybe it will change when I become a Dad, but I doubt it. If I have to lay down my life for my child or for my wife, I will choose my wife, every time.
Hopefully, neither you or I will be put in such a predicament.

I understand fully what you are saying, but you're using the logic of a computer -or a Vulcan.
Do you honestly think your wife would ever forgive you if you chose her life over your kids?
It is part of the nature of parents to give up their own lives for their children -Yes, just as Jesus did for us.
Now I WILL agree with you in the case of a bad pregnancy where either it is the mothers life or the life of the baby. Such cases are VERY rare in America today though, and they also tend to happen in the first trimester (although they
can happen anytime).
